100. Massachusetts 4-H: Our History A massachusetts Extension position paper on youth at and the Master Teacher in FamilyLife program. and managing conflict, stress, and resources was completed http://www.mass4h.org/about/history.html

Note : The below information encompasses 30 years of Massachusetts 4-H history. For a more complete version, please see Sixty Years of 4-H , a 56K downloadable PDF document. 4-H Youth Development Program Urban programs, particularly aimed at children living in low-income communities, grew in the early 1970's. The Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program (EFNEP) bill which earmarked $7.5 million for 4-H, followed by an additional $5 million designated to expand general 4-H programs in urban areas, made this happen. By the mid-1980's almost half of the five million 4-H members were from urban and suburban areas. Nationally, during the 1980's 4-H enrollment in school enrichment programming increased dramatically. In Massachusetts, Extension assumed the leadership for Massachusetts Agriculture in the Classroom, integrating 4-H curriculum with other agriculture education resources and holding teacher training workshops throughout the state. 4-H also experimented with school-based health education programs. By the end of the 1980's the 4-H Youth Development program had lost 55% of its staff through planned layoffs and retirements. This, combined with a reduction in clerical staff and the closing of county offices, had a negative effect on enrollment, programming, and staff morale.
